I'm Essence | Cat Sitting in Denver, CO
Hi, I'm Essence, a full-time cat sitter who loves cats deeply. I have grown up with cats since I was 12 years old. My first cat ever was a stray looking for a home. I took her home and told my mom I was keeping her. Later found out that she was pregnant with two kittens. I named them Tom and Jerry, and man, did they grow it to their names. Since then, I've had cats of many different personalities, characters, and health concerns, but that has never scared me away. The most recent fur baby was Flick. He was a rescue and was the best truck baby I had. We had a lot of road trips, went across states, and even had hiking trips for most of his life. Flick even had his own harness and backpack when he gets tired of walking. Eventually, he became a homebody due to age, but that didn't stop him from being a goofball. After some time, I understood that Flick needed a more stable permanent home, and with my job at the time, I was not fit for him and his health. Flick was given to a lovely lady working from home who loved taking naps. I will admit getting pictures and updates are the highlight of my day, but I will do anything to...





Essence's Reviews

Patrick
Essence has watched my cat multiple times, and has been incredible! I always feel safe having her watch Mandy!

Becca
Essence went above and beyond for me and Guppy. Not only did she problem solve an issue with my building, but she took great care of Guppy, who is a little shy and nervous.

Andy
excellent service! the best!

Leigh
Essence loves cats and truly enjoyed loving and playing with our senior cat, Pepper. Essence has a positive and happy attitude and respected my wishes for food preparation and all care. Very trustworthy and I wouldn’t hesitate to ask her to care for our cat.

Ben
Essence was amazing. Very attentive to my kitty with specials needs. Gave updates and pictures everyday, and was even able to charm my kitty who normally doesn't like strangers. Would highly recommend!

Frequently Asked Questions
The average price for a cat sitter is $30.00.
Every Meowtel cat sitter has been thoroughly vetted, background-checked, and is insured through Meowtel on eligible reservations via our Meowtel Promise. To ensure total peace of mind while you're away, every Meowtel reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you (and your kitties!) can have full confidence in your sitter before you leave.
Cats are territorial animals and don't do well in new environments. The presence of other cats, dogs, and even birds in kennels or animal hotels cause an immense amount of stress for your kitties. This is why Meowtel was created, so tailored in-home care is brought to you.
We recommend that you book daily visits with your sitter to keep your cats in their routine and to help minimize feline anxiety while you're away.
Each Meowtel cat sitting visit will include the whole 9 yards: feeding, refreshing the water bowls, litter box scooping, tidying up, medications, updates with photos, lots of playtime, as well as any special requests you may have. We know every kitty is different and that's why we offer tailored, in-home services since cats don't do well outside their own homes. Plus, every reservation comes with a free Meet & Greet so you can meet your sitter before you leave to ensure it will be a purrfect fit.
